Last Saturday I attended a sewing meet-up in London for the first time. I was one of 71 sewists taking part in the amazing meet-up arranged by Rachel.
We took over the V&A, and then took over the Goldhawk Road!
Before the meet-up I was paired with the lovely Ingrid for the name-tag swap. Ingrid made me an amazing tag inspired by my love of Star Trek.
I made Ingrid a mini dress name tag.
Due to lots of nattering about sewing I didn’t actually spent that long shopping, but I did get three lovely fabrics all of which are going to become dresses! I could not resist that Doraemon fabric. I’ve never seen one before but the shop actually had three different Doraemon fabrics.

Great fabric purchases!! The meet-up sounds like it was really good fun; the name tag is a lively memento.

I can’t wait to see what you do with your fabric, especially the middle one because I’ve got some of that too!

J’adore that pansy fabric! I remember now I saw it and like it (but was trying to be good! Ha!)

Yeah I keep seeing fabric I almost bought on other people’s blogs! I haven’t used any of my meet-up fabric yet though so probably bought plenty…
